Horrible customer service.
October 16, 2024

I love the fashion and items you can get on this site BUT YOU BETTER NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS CUZ THE CUSTOMER SERVICE ON THESE IMPORT COMPANIES IS HORRIBLE. YOU HAVE TO SEARCH FOREVER JUST TO ASK A QUESTION AND THEY TAKE 24 HRS. TO ANSWER. SO IF YOU HAVE TO ASK ANOTHER QUESTION BECAUSE THE PROBLEM WASN'T SOLVED IN ONE MESSAGING QUESTION THEN YOU ARE IN THIS FOR LIKE 4 DAYS TO A WEEK JUST TO ASK A SIMPLE QUESTION! AS IF IT IS OUT OF THE QUESTION TO HIRE AN ACTUAL PERSON YOU CAN TALK TO ON THE PHONE. MESSAGING IS THE WORST POSSIBLE WAY TO COMMUNICATE!

Mostly Plastic fibre, but 50% Lucky
October 10, 2024

Dear Team
Your Service is very friendly. But does not have the competence it should have as to complaints. I put so many clothes and also shoes into the bin and mentioned this so many times, but nothing really happened, only Blabla. I won't do your job to add the review details, you can easily find out, KI is your perfect Partner. In General, it is my humble opinion, you're just fishing customers. Unfortunately. Few of the products offered on your platform are really nice. Like 1920 resembling dresses and accessories. Most of shoes, pullovers and underwear. Especially nylons are of extraordinary quality! On the other hand, rubbish quality is on offer, plastic shirts, trousers… and
As I said, I complained about quality etc. but I feel and felt lost. As you can't really return the products.
Anyway, I will always order one or the other item.
Kind regards.

Usually good, but don't buy jewellery
October 9, 2024
Updated review

Usually good, occasionally sizes incorrect, if print on a shirt looks shiny in the picture it is not but I know that so that's not a problem. Most jewellery is not very good, though some is nice. Bought a few things that were described as silver with stone and that's what it looked like in the picture but it was very, very cheap metal with plastic, the pictures were of completely different items, the real thing looked nothing like that. So, in general I would say: Don't buy their jewellery

This order hasn't arrived yet, it is too early for that

Previous review

This order hasn't arrived yet, it is too early for that but my experience with Lightinthebox has been very good so far. If it hadn't been good I would have stopped ordering, the only thing I don't trust is their description of jewellery, that is often incorrect. Other than that I am very happy with Lightinthebox.

Occasionally sizes aren't accurate and if prints seem sparkly they're not. Once you know that it's fine.

Good solution
October 9, 2024

Saw a beautiful jacket and ordered an Xl in beige. When I tried it on the jacket fitted at the back, the arm length was perfect. Only the jacket was far too wide and the colour wasn't as in the picture. When I wanted to return this item to China, I had to take care of it myself.
LightInTheBox was very kind to help me out of this unhappy matter: I can keep the jacket and I will be refunded.
My trust is back and I am very happy with this solution.
The jacket will be donated to a person with a handicap.
The woman will be happy and I have a good feeling again with LightInTheBox.
Thank you!
